Basically, allows you to have a follower NPC accompany you on your adventures throughout Draenor. This can make gameplay very interesting depending on who you have following you around; Defender Illona / Aeda Brightdawn is great for DPS specialized players who are having difficulty surviving in the world; or Delvar Ironfist / Vivianne if survivability isn't a problem and you need more DPS. Presumably, there will be more followers with Bodyguard with more diverse abilities as the WoD develops.

Commentaire de watsonious

7 followers are capable of being your bodyguard on Draenor, once assigned to your barrack level 2 or above. They do not go into instances/raids with you, making their perks obsolete in some enviroments.

Bodyguards also have their own reputation which currently gives 10 for every kill in your level range.

This reputation goes to 10.000, twice. Each time giving you a higher affection level, starting at 1. Level 2(Wingman) gives a combat ability for your follower, Level 3(Personal Wingman) gives you a perk, after completing a personal quest for the follower.

If a bodyguard dies you have to return to your garrison's barracks, after they've "recovered" for an hour, and ask them to follow you again.

A few important things about bodyguards:

To Get Your Bodyguard to follow you:

Assign a follower with the bodyguard trait to the barracks from the architect table in the Townhall.

They will appear outside the Barracks.

Go to that follower and ask them to assist you in Draenor. (The Phrase is: "I could use a little muscle")

Body Guard Level:

Your bodyguard fights at the level you are at. I'm currently level 97, and so even though in my Garrison she is level 95, when she fights with me, she is also level 97.

Body Guard Death:

Your bodyguard can die easily. I used the warlock Aeda. She died taunting to a level 97 rare in Arak.

**There will be a 60 minute down time if they die, where they cannot be used or sent on a mission. You must go back to the Garrison and re-request them to assist you.**

Also followers love to AoE and pick up opposite faction pets on PvP realms just while randomly attacking mobs which they will attack until they die. I REALLY wish blizzard would give me a way to tell my bodyguard: DO NOT ATTACK THAT! As just being close to the opposite faction while leveling will result in an HOUR death for them.

World PvP:

An hour is a painful amount of time if your bodyguard dies, and makes ANY WPvP something to completely avoid.

Bodyguards are not useful in WPvP and are often just ignored. Or worse.. targeted on purpose.

I will add more help bits as I figure them out

Commentaire de pwnit

A few useful tips:

Set your bodyguard to the focus-target (right click their portrait, click "Set Focus"), so that you can track his/her health all the time. Even if you can't heal them, it still helps a lot to know if they're about to die.

Try not to accidentally AoE hostile players - your bodyguard will try and kill them. If it happened, you'd be better off trying to run away as quickly as possible, thus resetting your bodyguard. You can also try killing the enemy player, of course, but bear in mind that followers are quite fragile.

Gaining reputation with a bodyguard can be painful, so if you want to quickly grind some of it, I found a neat place just for that - stop by the rare mob Sunderthorn. In order to make it spawn, you have to kill some weak mobs there that come in packs - Stingtail Workers. If you stick to the hill, the spawned rare will not be in range to aggro you, and you'll be able to freely AoE these small packs down, which will then quickly respawn. Basically you can get your lv3 perk in half an hour or so - depending on the speed of your kills. I am not sure that works for level 100, but then again, I see no reason why it wouldn't.

Commentaire de Demonrider363

A good spot to farm Bodyguard reputation is between Frostwall Garrison, and Stonefang Outpost (Frostfire Ridge).

Reasons why this is good :

You can get Sumptuous Fur

You can get Raw Boar Meat

Most of the boars in the pack are "Minion" mobs, meaning they have a lot less health then regular mobs

The respawn rate is somewhat decent. When you run out of boars to kill in this area, you can go to the area between Frostwall Garrison and Grom'gar (not in the valley on the map, but on the ridge next to Grom'gar) to kill the spiders there

If you are a member of the Horde, you are relatively close to your Garrison

**Edit 1 : Clarified the location, improved some wording

Fastest way to get rep with your bodyguard is by grinding the carnivorous squirrel Ecureuil carnivore at 38.04, 22.38 in Shadowmoon valley. The squirrels have a almost instant respawn rate, very low health, and spawn in packs of 10+.

Note this place is highly camped and likely to be hotfixed soon.

Commentaire de Weislet

Does Horde really get no tanking companion for this, and alliance gets two? My poor squishy mage could really use a tank bodyguard but the closest I can get is a demo lock. I am sadface. :(

Edit: I have found that in spite of Delvar being listed as blood spec, he is not a tank but AOE DPS. He must be wrath-era still!

Commentaire de cordell9

So, if like me, you have done some research you probably saw that getting the blueprints for the level 2 large buildings needs to be done at level 98.

This is true to a point. There are outpost quests you can do that allow you get a book that can be turned in for a specific blueprint. So while you don't get ALL the blueprints this way you can get specific ones. I loved the idea of the bodyguard but wanted them to follow me around while questing/leveling.

1. Build the barracks - this one is obvious since you need the barracks for the bodyguard and it's built automatically at the start of your garrison2. Get a follower with the bodyguard trait.This is done easily by following the first quests to Ashran, finishing that little sequence and you get the caster follower VivianneYou can do this early on to start leveling her on missions as well. You do not need to wait for level 94 for this3. Continue to level to 94 as you normally want to4. You will get a quest in your garrison to go to Talador5. Take the flight path to Talador and do this specific quest chain

Continuing with the following quest series rewards a Comprehensive Outpost Construction Guide and follower Miall / Morketh Bladehowl. The quest series are relatively similar across factions: The Quarry Quandary In Ared's Memory/ Unleashed Steel Out of Jovite Iridium Recovery Gas Guzzlers Going to the Gordunni Dropping Bombs Supply Recovery, Prized Repossessions, Punching Through The Lord of the Gordunni The Only Way to Travel

6. Once you have this item, fly back to Ashran and exchange Comprehensive Outpost Construction Guide for Barracks Blueprints level 2The vendor for this is standing by the flight path, a goblin dude7. Learn the blueprint by clicking on it in your bags8. Go back to your garrison and go into your architect plans9. Click on the barracks and click upgrade10. Once upgraded take the bodyguard follower and click the + to assign them to the barracks11. Go back to your barracks and this new follower should be sitting out front12. Click on them and chose "I need some muscle"13. They will now follow you around

Commentaire de SeyonMas

Been keeping an eye out for a good place to farm bodyguard rep.

I found it. In gorgrond there is a bonus quest that has you kill spiders, pales, and a boss.

The spiders spawn from egg sacs, each egg sac spawns two spiders, the respawn on the egg sacs is extremely fast.

Essentially, pick your bodyguard, head to this spot http://www.wowhead.com/maps?data=6721:522761 and find the center room in the cave. You'll see about 7 egg sacs around you, all the mobs have low health and can be AoE grinded down. I went from 0 to max reputation with a follower in roughly 20 minutes.

Commentaire de shaelya

As a disc priest with very little dps output, I find bodyguards to be pretty useful when questing and farming mats. I find that you can't buff them (with Fortitude for example), but you can heal them.It doesn't matter if you are level 99 and you choose a bodyguard who is level 92. As soon as you recruit them, they will automatically become the same level as you. Pretty nice ;). If your bodyguard dies, there is a debuff in which you have to wait 1 hour to re-recruit. Once the debuff is over, you will need to go back to your garrison and speak to that follower to activate him as a bodyguard again. You can, however, assign a new follower to take their place. For those of you who have a specific follower that you would like as your bodyguard, make sure that you don't put them on a mission. They can't be in two places at once. So if you put them on a mission, you need to wait until that mission is finished before you can assign them to the barracks.

Commentaire de SilentLucidity

I've tried the squirrels, which didn't respawn quickly enough (although you can afk it if you don't want speed), and the beehive. The beehive was pretty good. I tried the egg sac room, and I got too annoyed at the terrible poison effects.

My current spot is Darksting Cave, in Gorgrond, at 53,78. That's where Mother Araneae is. I sit off to the right of the entrance and constantly pull spiders and pale spider worshipers to me, and aoe them down. Every few minutes in the spot I'm at, a bunch of untargetable spiders spawn and they all give rep, too. I wish I knew what made them spawn.

Edit: I get it now. The spiders are hallucinations caused by the poison. In the other cave, the poison gives you pale orc hallucinations, which don't give rep. This cave spawns a swarm of spiders that DO give rep. Once I figured out I should ignore the orcs and focus on the big spiders, my rep rate doubled. The orcs will die from your ae or from your bodyguard, but you want the spiders biting you.

Commentaire de Lobo2me

The best place I've found to level followers is in south Shadowmoon Valley at 55,74, where you get the Angry Beehive. There are Swamplighter Drones that spawn really quickly and are easy to kill.

However, not all classes can do that. Most of them are flying fairly high, so you need a class that can do some kind of AoE. As an arcane mage it was really easy, and I also used this spot to level my Balance druid (600k XP/hour unrested) just starfalling all mobs easily.

Leveling the next follower from 0 rep to full rep (20k total):23 minutes and 45 seconds (~50k rep per hour)789.2g in vendor grays26 greens1 blue

Seeing as to the spawn time is a bit slow and unreliable I suggest running around the triangle on the map I linked since the clusters have spawned back once you get back to the one you started on.

Crossing fingers this farmspot will last...

Commentaire de kupatrix

Consolidated some info about bodyguards, hope it helps others, got tired of looking these up individually for my alts. Posted this over @ Fidèles lieutenants first.

Bodyguards out in the field are equal to your level, even if their "follower level" is lower or higher (eg, my Illona is 95 because I'm always using her, but in the field she's level 100). The followers do stealth with you, they also will stealth if you use shadowmeld out of combat (if they're in combat though they will ignore it)

Others went over what happens if one of them dies, but to recap: if your bodyguard is defeated, you have to wait an hour to bring them back out with you. You can swap them out though, so for example if Ishaal dies you can swap him for Tormmok while waiting for Ishaal's debuff to expire.

Rep levels: Each bodygaurd has two "levels" of rep each needing 10,000 rep to max out. After maxing out the first level, your sidekick gains an ability of some kind, for example Ishaal gains a long stun ability. When you max out the 2nd level of rep your sidekick offers you quest (usually to defeat a powerful enemy) that when completed gets you access to a perk of some kind, like mobile mail access or repairs. Edit: You gain 10 rep per enemy killed w/your bodyguard active.

For internal reasons, npc's in the right column is the ones that follow the player around as a bodyguard, but for the player the name is masked to the follower name, everyone else sees the actual name.

Commentaire de Milkless

Edit: What's with the downvotes? It's good to know there's no point in farming Bodyguard rep before 100. Wish I'd known.

Commentaire de mvp967

Do weapons and armor from salvage/missions/ or the war mill affect bodyguard abilities?

I would like to think so but I'm uncertain. Is there an ilevel cap for your bodyguards?

A bodyguard's level on the command table has no impact on his bodyguard level? He/she always scales to your level?

Commentaire de Dragonzero

I have found something interest for the bodyguard that you get quest when they hit personal wingman. So when you hang around in Broken Precipice, Nagrand and you'll found Epée de Tormmok in the cave up the hill. That is really belong to Tormmok and so I don't know other bodyguards have same lost items around in the Draenor.

Commentaire de TheZoog

After I saw a number of people running around with 5 bodyguards, I wanted to get the Barracks. Eventually I realized that lvl 3 only grants 5 extra "followers" and you can only have 1 bodyguard at a time, although you can have a number of bodyguards in reserve in case yours dies.

Naturally this confused me, so the next time I saw players with 5 bodyguards I took the time to confirm, THEY ARE ALL BODYGUARDS and not multiboxed alts. Finally got a guy to admit it is a hack created by the Devs themselves (as most hacks are) to see if they wanted to emulate other games where a player can run a 5 man dungeon with their own toons (such as Dungeon Siege for example). Technically it is called a "crack" and not a hack since it was created in house.

The crack naturally made it into the player base. I don't regret going for barracks as my bodyguard is useful, although he is a maniac who runs around attacking everything in a 100 yard radius.

Now that I cleared that up, I want you guys to get ready to witness a new phenomenon: multiboxers who all use the 5-man bodyguard crack. If you have 5 m-boxed toons, each with 5 cracked bodyguards, you can raid one of the outdoor bosses by yourself with your 25 toon army. THAT would be something to see!

For anyone grinding bodyguard reputation:

After trying gaining bodyguard rep at places others have suggested, I found this place and it blew all the rest right out of the water. You'll find "Iyun Pustules" inside Moira's Rise at Bastion Rise in Gorgrond (48.0, 94.5.) You can stand in one spot and wave after wave will practically instantly spawn and run into your AoE. You could gain a full bar of rep in 15 minutes or less just from standing in that one spot and casting an AoE spell.

Completing the quest in which you kill Iyu outside the cave ends the mini-event in which these pustules spawn so keep that in mind.

The only catch is once in a while - and after some time - the amount of pustules spawning goes down, or they just stop spawning all together. Simply go off somewhere for 5 minutes or so and then go back to Moira's Rise. You'll have to go a bit deeper that before, watch for dust explosions and ground shakes occurring (signalling Iyu has phased in outside and above you) and the pustules have returned.

Commentaire de tykneetym

It would appear that none of the follower's properties (abilities, rarity, traits, ilevel, level, etc) apply when they are a bodyguard.

The only thing that determines the bodyguard's abilities are your level, gear, buffs, and reputation with the bodyguard.

I tested this using a 100/630 epic follower and a 92 rare follower. The rare follower was actually better, so I recommend picking a follower based on how their abilities compliment yours. You might also want to consider what follower abilities you don't need for missions.

As a protection paladin I use Vivianne to dish out damage while I tank and heal. Squishy types might prefer Aeda or Illona. I've also used Ishaal for better single target damage as Vivianne has a habit of casting Blizzard/Meteor a little too often for some situations.

Commentaire de Extremity

If your bodyguard "dies", just go to your Garrison and set a different bodyguard as the Barracks' follower. You can then use a different Bodyguard until the original you want to use comes off "cooldown".

The "dead bodyguard" debuff is specific to that individual follower and you can use another Bodyguard in the meantime. It dying does not mean you can't use ANY. It may not be the one you want to use the most, but when your bodyguard dies you can simply use another in the meantime.

I'm shocked at how many people do not know this. You can always have a bodyguard out unless you let ALL of them die within an hour.

Edit: Typo fix.

Commentaire de stevetheone88

DO NOT COMPLETE THIS QUEST! This quest is the BEST way to raise your rep with your bodyguards (followers with bodyguard trait). Accept the quest and go to the upper flor at 52,31. There will be some adds 91 lvl with 8.1k HP and when you kill them they will respawn within 1 sec.

As a frost DK, it took me 17 minutes to raise a follower from "Bodyguard" to "Personal Wingman" which translates to 20k rep in 17 mins (i also had the trading post bonus which means 12 rep per kill instead of 10).

When you are done, abandon the quest, go to your garr pick up next follower go back there accept it and do it all over again.

Note that the second time i went there i they wouldnt respawn so abandoned the quest again, and accepted it after 1 min and it was working fine like before.

EDIT: I forgot to post the quest because i copied my original post from the quests comments section. I fixed it now.

Commentaire de toolongdidntread

When your bodyguard dies you can return to your garrison and assign another follower with the trait to the barracks and select it as your bodyguard. I've had two bodyguards on "defeated" cooldown while a third was active.

Putting my bodyguard on focus has reduced untimely deaths even though healing a bodyguard would seem counterintuitive to tanks and dps.

As a human with Comptoir Niveau 3 I get 13 rep with my bodyguard for each kill regardless of level. Use bodyguards to farm the mats you need or see other posts for areas with quick respawns.

I like bringing my bodyguards along to garrison invasions. It's worth a little over 500 reputation points. It's fairly easy rep and the extra DPS is welcome.

Did it only for the achievement

Total useless time sink=Bodyguards rep aint account wide...Seems to me that doing this grind on all alts for just a few buffs aint for me at all. Took me on Podlings:1h10 for only one bodyguard + 1 quest that's 1h20 (went brain dead after 30 min)

Lets analyze this: A)First of all you'll have to drag this bodyguard everywhere you go and hope he won't die on you. B)They are pretty annoying coz they get in the way most of the time when clicking on npc and picking stuff. C)They don't follow you out of Draneor nor in instances. D) Reduces the number of spells you can apply to missions if turned into a bodyguard. E) They visualy block the view. Personaly I don't like Npc trolls.

Lets take a closer look at all those bodyguard buffs:

1)port back to garrison? got several ports to sw: ring, back, shrine: sw= kahdgar trade district= blasted portal= ashran = fly to garri= 1m50... so 1h20(80min)/1m50(2min)= 40 ports to garrison till you'll do a gain on this one. Conclusion: roll an alt, irl chores etc... its a time sink to rep this one

2)Repairs? buy a repair mount. Do you get pve killed often at lvl 100? If so the game aint for you. Or do like me: pvp gear set is in bags so I switch if i'm red Conclusion: Useless time sink

3)Mobile mailbox: if you're bags are so full its time to take a break and go to a Inn. Doing 1h20 to get this when there is a mailbox every 1min or so you'll have to get pass the 120 use to get benefits.

4)Summons:Could be nice but ask yourself: when do I get into a party? and is it worth 1h20 of work to get this? lets say you like to summon ppl to Drov most case they will have a warlock stone... AND mostly aint benefiting you coz you summon so you have to fly to position.

5) Mobile mission desk: Well... Leorajh is a caster so aint very usefull for tanking. Could be nice to have just to be closer to profession w/o or mine/herb to save time getting out of the townhall but I prefer building lvl 3 to get most w/o on a 3 day cd so I don't do this every day, get yourself an portable anvil, buy mats(mine/herbs) on AH , bare in mind that all crafting items after 6 months will be useless once again... For me this bodyguard is the best for utility of all those choices but 1h20 work to get him on all alts is abuse(maybe for a main). Most of us will stay at Garrison 90% of the time takes 20 sec to get to a w/o from townhall so you'll have to do this 240 times to get benefits w/o and herbs is only once a day so after 240 days Leorajh will get you some benefits.

Commentaire de Weasei

If you're a warlock or other class with pets and are going AFK for long periods of time it's worth putting your character at a location with large groups of low health enemies and staying there.

As a warlock I used my Infernal to AoE down packs as they spawned on me, but a single target minion or pet could work just as well.

If you and your bodyguard are both level 100 then it should also be possible to use this method without a pet or minion.

So far the best location I've found is Overlook Ruins in Gorgrond, with packs of Larvelin pierréclats which spawn regularly in packs of about 8, with each enemy having roughly 5k hp.

Note: if you're able to return to ensure you don't get timed out for being AFK too long on a relatively regular basis this method is incredibly effective, e.g. at work (disclaimer: Weasei is not accountable for loss of employment due to following this advice).

Commentaire de Dashan

I really wish you could 'call off' your body guard from attacking, similar to the Pet "Assist", "Defensive", and "Passive" settings. If you accidentally pull too many mobs, or otherwise just want to leave combat, you can't recall your bodyguard and he just dies. Currently it seems the only option is to try and run far enough away for him to de-spawn before the mob kills him.

Otherwise the only other thing is getting my bodyguard to not be in the way when I try and click things. Especially Tormmok omg the dudes huge. But I am glad Blook isnt a body guard cause then I couldnt see my screen.

What are the Earthbinders that people have as Bodyguards? They look Saberon? Where do you get them?

One full circuit along each side of the trail, into the cave, and up around the hillock at the north end takes only 3 to 3 1/2 minutes and has almost fully respawned by the time you get back around to your starting point. Thirty minutes of grinding (appx 12-15 passes) will max your follower rep to Personal Wingman and give you roughly 50-60 charms on each pass.

Just be nice to any 90s questing there who need these mobs and the Swamplighter Queen for Fiona's quest chain; let them tag the bee before you burn it down.

Commentaire de akasachmo

As of 2/22/15 it is possible to get a follower to level 3 (Personal Wingman) in about 15-20 minutes so you can finish Fidèles lieutenants in about 90 minutes.

If you chose the Lumber Yard in Gorgrond, there is a chain that leads to Iyu, staying inside and killing the podling adds yields reputation for your follower and they respawn almost instantly.

Luckily I initially chose the Arena so I was able to go back and get this quest, for the small price of 5000 gold. :)

edit: If you want to do this with more than one bodyguard, abandon the quest and go back down to Trancheur and accept it again. Repeat as needed.

Word of note: for mission min-maxing Bodyguards are actually the worst followers to have (again, for min-maxing, not from a bodyguard assistance point of view). Garde du corps is useless for missions. Deactivate them after you maxed out rep and/or don't need the assistance of a bodyguard anymore. I would suggest keeping one for invasions/questing, for which I chose Leorajh due to his amazing second rank ability and occasionally useful Wingman perk.

If you are Horde coming here to see if there is a Tank Bodyguard, there isn't. Tormmok's character page says he has Taunt, but it only works for follower missions. He cannot hold aggro worth spit with you, and as others have said his damage output is middling. Meanwhile, Alliance have Defender Illona who can even tank elite mobs.
